trying this again

well i had a decent small airport previously, but i moved a little over a year ago and, well, cardstock doesnt hold up well in transportation. so i wandered away from the hobby for a while (my computer also crashed so i lost all the custom files for my airport). im finally back into the whole aviation thing, even working towards a pilots liscense. so i made a small little airport. my apologies for the poor picture quality, i dont have a great camera. i edited in a background in photoshop which will explain the strange shapes in the distance.

im open to advice, suggestions, etc.

does anyone know how to make a good runway using the computer?

Looks very nice. Now is this made out of Cardstock like the old one? Also, and sorry if I sound a bit ignorant, but what is cardstock?

photos - again, i apologize for the quality. my camera isnt the best. ill see what i can do.

cardstock- basically heavy paper that is more rigid. makes for easy structures as you can just print something onto it from the computer then cut and tape. however, its not practical for larger structures as it is still a paper product. im looking into using it along with styrofoam to make a large terminal some day.
